But it's more about revealing before choosing, not revealing only in the first action.

That must be the one, I simply couldn't remember exactly what it was about. Thanks for retrieving it.

Allow them to discard any card whose CMC is one they can afford, and make the mana cost a generic cost. If the PREREQUISITE block, if the discarded card is nil (hasn't been chosen yet), then return true. If it's not nil (it's been chosen), make them pay X.

Code: Select all

<COST type="Generic">
<PREREQUISITE>
local player = EffectController()
local filter = ClearFilter()
filter:SetZone(ZONE_HAND, player)
filter:Add( FE_CMC, OP_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO, player:GetTotalMana() )
return filter:CountStopAt(1) == 1
</PREREQUISITE>
<RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
local player = EffectController()
local filter = ClearFilter()
filter:SetZone(ZONE_HAND, player)
filter:Add( FE_CMC, OP_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO, player:GetTotalMana() )
player:ChooseItem( "CARD_QUERY_CHOOSE_CARD_TO_DISCARD", EffectDC():Make_Targets(10) )
</RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
<RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
local chest = EffectDC():Get_Targets(10)
local card = chest:Get_CardPtr(0)
if card ~= nil then
   EffectController():PayManaCost("{"..card:GetConvertedManaCost().."}")
   chest:LKIShield_CardPtr(0)
   card:Discard()
end
</RESOLUTION_TIME_ACTION>
</COST>

When this happened to me I was testing a commander deck (Ayli) and using Favor of the Gods to simulate commander rules with life totals and tutoring for Ayli. I think the bug may be occuring when I increase my opponents life totals.

Any idea what might be happening here?

HQ art uploaded (all were missing):
Illusory Ambusher
Inner-Flame Igniter

Open Items:

-- CW_CARD_QUERY_SPLINTERVERSE has been updated and uploaded.

-- Where are the help block messages stored for abilities? I can't seem to find them in the lol files. I would like to add some (if possible; and if not, is there an alternative to add info)?

-- Infernal Harvest http://pastebin.com/BJPLRY55 The log says that the SetTargetCount is nil, but I've used LKI_shield in the cost. Is there something else needed here?

-- Invader Parasite http://pastebin.com/6PSTnW9v Nothing happens when the opponent plays the chosen land. It doesn't even show animation, which leads me to believe it's not recognizing the LinkedDC or something. I've tried the custom name functions as well, but no luck.

-- Ivory Gargoyle http://pastebin.com/YvAu2veb Does not return from the graveyard and does not prevent draw. The animation runs when it first enters the graveyard. I've tried removing one of the delayed triggers, but that didn't work either.

-- Knollspine Invocation http://pastebin.com/1Zjua32j This one might not be possible. I can't get it to be activate-able. My guess is because it's waiting for the second cost (discard) to be available, but we don't know the cmc until after X is paid (the other cost).

Next:

Back on Tuesday for more coding.

Next question -- when comparing a color in a filter (a la FE_COLOUR, OP_IS, COLOUR_RED) what is actually being compared? Is it an integer or a string? And, if it's an integer, what integer corresponds to each color?

I am going to pass the colour to the filter and I'm not sure if I should store it as an integer or string.
